Twitter and Status Updating, Fall 2009
Fox, Susannah et al.
Pew Internet and American Life Project, October 21, 2009, online edition,
"Some 19% of internet users now say they use Twitter or another service to share updates about themselves, or to see updates about others--up from 11% in April. Three groups of internet users are mainly responsible for driving the growth of this activity: social network website users, those who connect to the internet via mobile devices, and younger internet users – those under age 44."
Susannah Fox is Associate Director, Digital Strategy, at Pew Internet and American Life Project.
